Pet Sitting in Bridgewater

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs since I could drive. I dog sit for family and friends pretty consistently. I also have a pretty flexible schedule! I have a really flexible schedule Monday-wednesday as I work on the weekends. However I would be willing to squeeze in a walk before work which is normally at 10am. I follow each pet’s routine closely whether in my home or the client’s. I provide fresh water, playtime, walks, and lots of love, always making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable.

About: Animals have been the heart of my home since I was a child. Growing up with Labs, German Shepherds, and Mastiffs taught me how to be a confident leader and a compassionate caregiver. Today, my black cat Squirt is my best friend, and that same love I have for him is what I bring to every pet I sit for. ​I pride myself on being a trustworthy and caring sitter. When you leave your pets with me, you can rest easy knowing they are in the hands of someone who genuinely loves their company. I am happy to accommodate different sizes, energy levels, and personalities—I simply love being around animals and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I am currently not working, so my schedule is open. I want to spend my free time with animals of all kinds - making all of us happy and allowing me to feel fulfilled! I am great with animals. Dogs and cats trust me and can tell that I am a genuinely good person. I won't let anything bad happen to your loved ones on my watch!

About: Growing up, my family didn’t have pets of our own, so whenever we had the opportunity to host or care for one, I truly valued it. Over time, what started as excitement developed into a genuine passion for building real connections with animals. I’ve cared for dogs with very different personalities — from protective, high-energy breeds to small companion dogs. I pay close attention to body language and natural behaviors so I can approach each dog in a way that builds trust and comfort. I match their energy, respect their boundaries, and create an environment where they feel safe and understood. I have hands-on experience with puppies, leash training, and maintaining structure and routine. I’m comfortable reinforcing positive walking habits and supporting established crate training in a way that helps dogs feel calm and secure. I also carefully follow specific diets and detailed feeding instructions, understanding how important consistency is to a dog’s well-being. Outside of pet care, I’m building experience working with young adults with special needs. That work has strengthened my patience, attentiveness to nonverbal cues, and commitment to being dependable. I believe people should have someone they can rely on, and I carry that same responsibility into caring for animals. My focus is simple: safety, consistency, engagement, and genuine connection. ⸻ Core Strengths • Trust-building & reading canine body language • Puppy care & routine reinforcement • Leash handling & basic command reinforcement • Crate training support & positive association • Following specific diets and care instructions • Enrichment-based play & mental stimulation • Calm, patient, dependable care I currently work from 8–10 AM and 5:30–8 PM, which leaves my early mornings, late mornings, mid-day, and late evenings fully available for pet care. This schedule allows me to provide consistent attention throughout the day, including walks, playtime, feeding routines, and check-ins. Dogs in my care are not left alone for extended periods without a plan in place. I’ve successfully boarded two dogs with this routine, and we had a great experience maintaining structure, engagement, and plenty of activity throughout the day. My availability works especially well for: • Morning and mid-day walks • Consistent feeding schedules • Puppies who need more frequent attention • Dogs who benefit from structured activity and engagemen No matter where I am, in my home or at a client’s home. I prioritize following the care routine the owner provides. This ensures pets have stability and consistency while their loved ones are away. I make sure to provide: • Regular feeding according to specific diets and schedules • Plenty of mental and physical stimulation through walks, play, and enrichment activities • Safe, supervised time in the home, including supporting crate routines when applicable • Consistent attention to their comfort, energy levels, and emotional needs • Clear communication with owners, including updates and photos I tailor my care to each individual dog, respecting their boundaries and energy, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and engaged until their owners return.

“Saori took exceptionally good care of our cats and dog while we were traveling. Each visit was well documented and our pets were shown lots of attention and love. Saori kept us updated on anything unexpected while we were away and communicated extremely well throughout our trip! I feel so lucky to have found such a reliable pet sitter and would absolutely recommend her.”

“Isabelle is so sweet and she was great with our boy Boone! We didnt have enough time for her to meet Boone prior to booking so our boy was nervous when she first got there, but she made sure to give him his space and time to warm up to her. It paid off because they spent the evening on the couch together 😊 She followed the schedule we provided and she sent photo and picture updates throughout their time together, which was great. Boone made a new friend so we’ll be sure to book Isabelle again!”

“Jillian did a great job with my dog. She came on time and she left everything clean when she left. During our meet and greet I could feel how much she love animals. I will use her again for sure!”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats. So caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I believe they truly are your family. I've cared for dogs and cats for friends and more recently focusef on pet sitting in the home for their owners while they are way. I'm semi retired which gives me more flexibility to care for your sweet loved one. I'm currently working part time which gives me more flexibility to walk the dog during the day and or evening and avail on weekends as well as pet sitting for long trips. If it's a medium just small dog I can take care of your pet at my home It's a condo but we have plenty of yard to walk it and walk around the neighborhood. Although has to be on a lease. Or I can come pet sit in your house if you would prefer.

“Sabrina took wonderful care of our Golden and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous at first, but Sabrina immediately put us at ease. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly very caring with our dog. She also sent us updates and pictures, which we really appreciated—it was so nice to see how well our Golden was doing while we were away. Booking through Rover was very easy, and Sabrina made the whole process smooth from start to finish. We were extremely satisfied and would not hesitate to book her again. We highly recommend Sabrina to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”

“Jamie was great with my dogs and helped me out when I was stuck working a double at work. She is very sweet with my dogs and went above and beyond what I asked her to do! I will definitely be asking her back again!!!”

“Olivia dealt with incredibly cold temperatures, rain and ice and took such good care of my girl. Traveling is hard and Olivia’s daily check ins eased my mind and help me enjoy my trip. I could see from the pictures how comfortable Doodle was. I will absolutely book Olivia again!”

“Annmarie took care of our two cats while we were away for the holidays. She did a great job taking care of them, kept their litter boxes tidy, and was communicative and helpful throughout our time away. She helped us out by bringing in packages, alerting us to a beeping sound in our boiler room, and keeping our kitties cared for. We will definitely hire her again!”

Dianne D.

“Caroline is the absolute best. Another sitter cancelled last minute and she was able to step in. She sent SO many pictures and videos of our cats which we loved, we always worry when we’re away and knew after the first day that they were in good hands. She was super communicative and overall the exact type of sitter we’d want. We will absolutely be using her again!”

About: I’ve helped care for eight family dogs throughout my life, so I’m very comfortable around different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and understand how important it is to keep pets safe and comfortable. I’m available on weekends with flexible hours, and I’m also available every weekday after 2 PM. This allows me to give your dog plenty of attention in the afternoons and evenings, whether that’s for walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care. I will always communicate clearly about scheduling When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I also give lots of attention and supervision so they feel safe while you’re away.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I got my own little Poodle girl at 12 who was the love of my life for 14 years. Since that hole in my heart was made in 2019 I’ve jumped at the chance to take care of any friend or family dog whenever I could. I’m sure a lot of people say they have a sixth sense for dogs, but I truly do. Dogs that normally don’t like people, like me, and I’ve had multiple shocked faces when those dogs are fine with me. I have taken care of old dogs, young dogs, sick dogs, injured dogs, and dogs that are allergic to everything. I also let them move free and don’t crate them unless it’s a requirement. If they want to sleep with me in the bed they can unless they are a breed that shouldn’t. I’m looking to be full-time on here and have full availability. I’d be able to be with the dogs for most of the day outside of having to go to the store or something like that. My yard has a fence on one side and a natural tree border on the other three sides, I share a driveway with my neighbor so there’s another whole house and yard before the road. I wouldn’t let them outside unless I was with them, most dogs know the authority of my voice so I can trust them without a leash after they get comfortable with me and the yard but the first few walks will be leashed to gauge the dog. I usually do a 6am and 6pm feeding time unless otherwise specified. I usually am up around 5am for the morning walk, I’ll usually walk them every 2 hours or so to hope the poop at least once a day. I let them sleep where they want wether it’s in their crate, on the floor/blanket/dog bed or if they want they can sleep in the bed with me unless the breed shouldn’t. I would be with them all day so separation anxious dogs can be less stressed. I never ever will feed them from the table or kitchen while I’m cooking something for myself, I am also not quick to give treats unless they deserve it so I usually send them home with treats still remaining in their bag.

About: Growing up, I had a Lab and then a Boxer and two cats. I've also helped my aunt at the doggie daycare she runs out of her home where she often has more than 10 dogs at a time. Everything from a Great Pyrenees to German Shepherds to Doodles to Yorkies. And it's always so much fun! The care I'll give your pets will really depend on them and their needs. There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or play. And there are multiple parks in the area too we could explore. At yours, I'd keep whatever their normal routine is. Whether that's taking walks, throwing the ball or just sitting and chilling and scratching butts. Their butts of course!

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with animals. I’m a pet owner with two dogs, two cats, and a bird, and I’ve also pet-sat and run a dog walking business growing up. I’m reliable, attentive, and comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets, always making sure they feel safe and well cared for. Pet care fits well into my routine. I take early classes and work a part-time job two days a week, which gives me plenty of availability during the day and evenings. I’m used to planning my schedule around pets, making sure they get consistent walks, feedings, playtime, and attention throughout the week. For dog walking, I focus on keeping dogs safe, active, and comfortable. I follow each client’s instructions closely, including leash preferences, walking routes, and any special needs. I make sure dogs get proper exercise, water breaks, and positive attention during walks. In a client’s home, I respect their space, secure doors and gates, and ensure pets are settled safely before and after each walk. My goal is always a safe, enjoyable walk that fits each dog’s energy level and routine.

“Did a great job watching our Cat. Gave us plenty of updates on his health and was able to modify her visits last minute to accommodate our delayed travel plans. It was nice to have one less thing to worry about while we were away.”
